were uniting in an attack on the Canadian yoads in consequence of Senator Cullom's resolution drawing attention to the inroads of Canadian railways, especially ^hc Canadian Pacific, upon Amuri can freight traffic from Western points to the Atlantic ports, was shown to a C.P.R.official this afternoon.H^ stated that the Canadian Pacific had no fear of a combination of the American roads against them, as*thelr road is associated with all tlie roads of the United States in the transcontinental tadS'through the Transcontinental Association.Tlie facts in connection with this association are these All the railways in the association, recognizing the fact that the Canadian Pacific was not on a footing to compete with them on even terms for American transcontinental freight, as it had not rail connections with the Pacific ports in the United States, allowed live company a differential transcontinental rate, a handicap, ns it were, in favor of the Canadian roads.In consequence, tlie Canadian Pacific agents at San Francisco are allowed, by the agreement between the loads, to take freight, for New Ycrk at a considerably lower rate than any of the American roads.Since the agreement Mas made it has lM;en found that tlie disadvantages the C.P.R- lalxirs under, through hav ing to ship the freight from the American Pacific Dort» to Vancouver and versa by water, me, to a great extent, counterbalanced by the advantage the Company has in having its rails from ocean to ocean under one management.Tlie differential freight just enables the Canadian road to compete on equal terms m ith the American roods, and it has been receiving a ^ood «hare cf American transcontinental freight.Several of the American roads have been disappointed that tlie C.P.R.which M as, in spite of the differential, considered out of the field altogether, has procured so much of this business ; but they can't kick as the Canadian road has stuck faithfully to its agreement in spite of all difficulties, and have done business according thereM\u2019ith without any rate cutting.Any action, therefore, hostile to tlie C.P.R.will Ini in direct contravention of an agreement entered into between the different roads, with the ultimate consequence in plain vieM-.The fact is tlie American roads underrated the Canadian Railway and are now squealing.There is a second chapter to the famous
